	Central Europe Review - Music: Krzyzstof Penderecki (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Penderecki ran through the score just once in its entirety, barking an occasional order to the players - usually to play louder - before muttering his thanks and departed from the podium without any fine-tuning or tweaking, save for a few moments spent with the violas, at their request, on a tricky melodic line.
		In fact, Penderecki has stated, without any hint of irony, that sonata allegro form is the only way forward for contemporary composers, and were it not for the presence of a few (now scrupulously marshalled) harmonic clusters in the later works, it would almost sound as if modernism had never happened.
		Penderecki certainly has his musical obsessions, and they can be traced throughout his career, but the limitations of his music are another constant factor.

	An edited extract from a BBC Radio 3 programme on the music of Krzysztof Penderecki
		Sixty years ago today the Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki was born, and earlier this year his birthday was celebrated by a series of concerts around Britain in which Penderecki himself conducted the Leipzig Radio Symphony Orchestra in performances of his music.
		Penderecki however, being Polish, comes from a culture that is anything but stable, and in such a volatile context a lack of concern for continuity of style, though certainly not inevitable, is at least rather less surprising, and so perhaps we should look at his music from other perspectives before we can assess its significance.
		Penderecki, on the contrary, seems to want to re-enact history to the extent that he abandoned his own immediate past in preference for the rhetoric of a late nineteenth century romantic aesthetic, infused with elements of early twentieth century expressionism.

		Penderecki's opera, they said, had been the talk of the town for weeks, and tickets for the remaining performances were selling like hotcakes.
		Penderecki is not so much a convert as a born-again traditionalist, for his student works - composed several years before he burst onto the scene as a 27-year-old enfant terrible with his infamous 1960 ''Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima'' - were quite in line with the conservative ideals he espouses today.
		Penderecki's first opera - spiced heavily with his trademark avant-garde sonorities - was the 1969 ''Devils of Loudon,'' an adaptation of the Aldous Huxley novel about alleged witchcraft and demonic possession in central Europe in the 17th century.
